Summary: dispelled dependencies should trigger a recast minus
those depends
Product: Sorcery
Version: Feature Request
Platform: All
OS/Version: Linux
Status: NEW
Severity: minor
Priority: P4
Component: Dispel
AssignedTo: sm-sorcery-bugs AT lists.ibiblio.org
ReportedBy: eric AT sandall.us


When a spell is dispelled (not from prepare_install, though) that other
packages
depend on, then those packages should be recompiled, but with their dependency
list modified to not use that package (we could just use `cast -r` on the
package to be recompiled, but that may mess up some packages [grub, linux,
etc.]).

E.g.
I cast gaim with nas support (which adds "--enable-nas" to gaim's depends
list).
I later dispel nas, so gaim should be recompiled without nas (I'm not sure if
Sorcery would automatically remove the option if gaim were recast after
compiling with nas, but now with nas removed), so it should now have
"--disable-nas" in the depends list (if the dependency just had "" for the
second option, then "" should replace "--disable-nas" in the above) when gaim
recasts.

By "depends list" I mean the list of what is added to $OPTS from the
dependencies, which I believe is stored in /etc/sorcery/local/depends/$SPELL.
